Yesterday the revision for this county was pursued at the Court-house, Lime-house. Mr. COVENTRY and Mr. KEEN, the Revisiag Barristers, attended at the usual hour. The Bromley, St. Leonard, and St. Anne, Limehouse, lists were examined, but they presented no case of novelty. There were some objections raised on the part of the Con servatives to the retention on the list of parties claiming as Trustees of the River Lea, but the objections were ex punged without any argument. Mr. KEEN heard the objections on the lists from St. Paul Shadwell, St. Mary Stratford-le-Bow, Poplar, Rat cliffe. &c. THE RUSSELL CASES.—Previously to proceeding, M r . KEEN said that he deemed it to be his duty to notice a letter that had appeared in a morning paper, signed " A Middlesex Elector." It cast an impeachment on the pro bity of the Court, in declaring that he had decided con trary to the law, because the cases were (the Russells) those of relations of a Minister of the Crown, and because the claim of that Minister himself(Lord John Russell) was involved in the decision. Therefore he repelled the at tack, not on his own acconnt, for such course would be inconsistent with the position he temporarily held, but for the purpose of correcting possible misapprehen sion and error as to what had fallen from him on the occasion of directing the retention of Lord John Russell's claim and right to vote. He had on that occasion declared that he held that the latter part of the 7th sec. of 7th and Bth Wil. 3, cap. 5, enacting that all conveyances for splitting votes should be void, was not applicable to the present state of the law of elections ; but the object of that enactment was to restrict the right of voting to one voice for one house or tenement, &c., whereas the Reform Act admitted a plurality of votes for one and the same property. He had farther held that the grants of the rent charge by the Duke of Bedford could not be for the alleged consideration of natural love and affection, but was plainly for the purpose of creating votes. He had held the opinion that the desire to confer the county franchise upon a son or relative of the granter was a legitimate mo tive for the gift, and that even if such a motive were ex pressed upon the face of an instrument creating a rent charge it would not invalidate the grant. That the re striction of the right of voting to one voice, which was the object of the Splitting Act, was no longer part of the law, was clear from the consideration that there was now no limit, except value, to the number of persons who might be entitled to vote in respect of the same property.

SOLICITORS' OFFICES.—Mr. MYLNE said the first case in which he bud to give judgment was one of great im portance, as it affected the claims of a great number of in dividuals in the City of London. The question he had to decide was, whether a solicitor's office, where no other apartments were occupied, was or was not a proper quali fication, under the 27th sect. of the Reform Act. Under all the circumstances, he felt bound to allow the claims of all those parties claiming in respect of occupying solicitors' offices. Claim allowed. This decision places a great number of names on the registry. BARNARDS' INN.—In the parish of St. Andrew, Hol born, a number of gentlemen claimed to be placed on the registry, as belonging to a Society in Barnard's Inn, called the " Antients."—Claim allowed. ORDINARY OF NENVGATE. CHRISTCHURCH, NENVGATE-STREET.-Mr. CRAIG gave judgment in this case at considerable length, disallowing the claim. CHRIST'S HOSPITAL.—Mr. CRAIG said Browne and Rice claimed to be placed on the register, in respect of houses they occupied in their right as masters of Christ's Hospital. These cases did not materially differ from Dr. Cotton's, which he had just decided, and he should not allow the claim. _ Mr. My LNE acknowledged the courtesy and good feeling which had prevailed throughout the whole proceedings. Mr. ROWCROFT bore testimony to the impartiality of the Revising Barristers. After which the Court adjourned. 3H MARKETS. TE tbr the WEEK ENDING OCT. 28. (From the Macclesfield Courier of Saturday.) It is our duty to relate a most distressing case of that Most atvftil thaladt td *bleb human nature is subject—hy drophobia) *hid - 1 has deettricd in this neightiatirtotkl doting the present week. On Monday last a son of Mr. Priestrieii; d eePectable farther at Batley; near this town, about thirteen yeaA of age, a fin@ Lima!) , as taken ill at school with a gene ral fever and difitculty of SMilidifinel On his return home in the evening, his parents engaged the attendance of Mr. Nightingale; of Wilmslow, surgeon, but no appreti@tins of hydrophobia being entertained, the case was treated as one of hysteria, until the follotcing morning, when Mr. Bland, of Macclesfield, also saw the boy, and the symp toms were then such as to leave no doubt on has mind that the patient was labouring under a decided attuclt of hydrophobia. The boy wag able to swallow, but not without great effort ; he complained of flinch confu sion in his head, and after taking any fluid, hid erg became glaring and very prominent, with an appearance of obliquity of vision. A large numb•.:r of leeches were immediately applied at the back of the neek, and slight opiates administered. In the evening he expressed him self greatly relieved by this treatment, but the diffi culty of swallowing had become increased ; and the slight est noise, or the appearance of water, or the approach of a candle near him, threw him into dreadful convulsions ; he •became- gradually worse during the night, and in his con scious intervals he frequently requested his parents, who at tended him with the utmost anxiety, and whose agonised feelings cannet be described, and the other persons wliO came near his bed, not to approach too near him lest he might bite them, almost immediately afterwards attempting to do so, during the paroxysms of his dreadful malady, On the following morning, he was visited by Mr. Nightingale, Mr. Fleet, Mr. Lallemand, and Mr, Bland, who, in con sultation, deemed the case utterly beyond the reach of me dical skill, the poor boy remaining in a state of almost Unin terrupted convulsions, accompanied with violent struggling, requiring the united efforts of several persons to restrain him from doin g c , injury to himself or those about him , the saliva issuing from his mouth in considerable quatitltiet, He continued in this deplorable state until the afternoon of Wednesday, when death terminated the excruciating ago nies which the poor boy endured, in about 48 hours from his first attack. The cause which led to this melancholy, and to those who witnessed the case most heartrending event, was simply, we are informed, as follows :—About four months ago young Priestnall, in his rambles in the country, met a strange dog near a brook, and with boy-like mischief endeavoured to force the dog into the water ; it however turned upon him and bit him very slightly (a mere scratch) on the back of his left hand, but the wound was so trifling, that he did not make the occurrence known at the time. The dog was, however, soon afterwards seen by other persons, and suspicions of its being in a state of madness arising, it was pursued and killed near Dean-row. It would appear that the poor boy had afterwards some apprehensions of danger, from the circumstance that on seeing a book at school that treated on the subject of canine madness, he paid much at tention to it, and, in the interval of his convulsions, he inquired from the medical gentleman whether excision of the part, or the amputation of his limb, would not be desirable, adding, that he had read of it in a book at school. The fatal virus had however been then ton deeply imbibed in the system to allow of the possibility of success from the remedy the poor boy suggested. Whilst yet the deadly malady was workin g its fatal progress there were intervals of consciousness. On one occasion, when he heard it in cidentally mentioned that the night was very fine and light, and the moon at the full, he started up and exclaimed, " Ah, people go mad at the full of the moon !" and was in stantly seized with violent convulsions. The melancholy event has occasioned a considerable sensation in the neighbourhood of its occurrence, and much sympathy is manifested towards the distressed parents. WASHINGTON IRVING'S NEW WORK, " As. TORIA."-" In the course of occasional visits to Canada many years since," observes Washington Irving in the pre face to this charming work, which every one must read, and which will render even the author of " The Sketch Book" more popular, " I became intimately acquainted with some of the principal partners of the North-West Fur Company, who, at that time, lived in genial style at Montreal, and kept almost open house for the stranger. At their hospi table board I met with men who had passed years remote from civilized society, among distant and savage tribes, and who had wonders to recount of their wide and wild peregri nations, their hunting exploits, and their perilous adven tures and hair-breadth escapes among the Indians. I was at an age when the imagination lends its colouring to every thing, and the stories of these Sinbads of the Wilderness made the life of a trapper perfect romance to me. From those early impressions, the grand enterprises of the great Fur Companies, and the hazardous errantry of their associates in the wild parts of the vast continent of America, have always been themes of charmed interest to me." " Astoria" comprises various expeditions and adventures by land and sea. The facts, however, will prove to be linked and banded together by one grand scheme, devised and conducted by a master-spirit ; one set of characters, also, continues throughout, and the whole enterprise winds up by a regular catastrophe ; so that the work, without any la boured attempt at artificial construction, actually possesses much of that unity always sought after in works of fiction. " Astoria," is, incieed, a romance of real life. GAMING HOUSES.—To the disgrace of the magis terial and parochial authorities of Westminster, and more particularly of St. James and St. Martin, not only are the numerous gaming houses with which that part abounds, al lowed to carry on their illicit pursuits at all hours of the day and night, but even to desecrate the Sabbath, when their avocations are as extensively carried on as during the rest of the week. There are no less than seven of these dens of plunder in the Quadrant, in Regent-street, the doors of which stand invitingly open until four or five o'clock every morning, to entrap the unwary ; and no distinction is made on that day, the due protection of which is called for, both by the laws of God and man. The moral consequences of this unhallowed desecration are obvious, by affording an op portunity of indulgence in this ruinous vice to young men, whose commercial pursuits prevent their attendance at any oth2r time, and of whom the majority of visitors on such occasions is composed. The sole protection of the laws for the observance of the Sabbath, seems confined to a cru sade against the comparatively harmless venders of fruit in streois, whilst these dens of infamy are allowed to exist per fectly uncontrolled, and even unheeded. At some of the low hells in the neighbourhood of Leicester-square, even sums as small as copper are staked. WOMAN'S LOVE.—How extremely chaste is the following aphorism which Mr. James, the author of " The Gypsy," " John Marston Hall," &c., introduces in one of the episodes of " The Desultory Man," his last new novel : Women are taught to keep their affection, like a rare gem, hidden from all eyes, in the casket of their heart ; and it is not till, by some mishap, the key is lost or stolen, that man finds what a treasure there is within." LONDON STREETS.—It has been said of John Bull that he is at once the busiest and the idlest animal in creation. Look at any of the great London thoroughfares ; a stream of human kind pours through it so rapid, so full, and so continuous, that the true wonder is where it all comes from. But all is business : every step is hot and hurrying, if a moment's delay were a thing of fate ; every face is full of something to be done ; and every gesture is en avant. How different all this is from the tardy look of life in every other part of the globe, all their visitants know. How long is it before we shall see a range of chairs posted rank and file in Cheapside and Cornhill, each containing its lounger, male or female, quietly displaying their own graces, or examining, with glass at eye or gob let of orgeat at lip, the shapes and costumes of the pass ing genevxtion ! Yet Paris, too, is a stirring spot, and an absolute mart —an operarium to the whole tribe of the towns of Italy and the Peninsula. Yet a dead dog, a fallen horse, two brats quarrelling, a detected pickpocket, or a pair of pigeons flirting on a house-top, will chetk the whole London torrent at once, fix every eye, and arrest every footstep, till the spell is broken ; the whole frozen tide is thawed again. —Blackwood for October. Died, on the 31st of July, on his passage to Eng land, between the Cape of Good Hope and St. Helena, William Hawkins, Esq., in the 78th year of his age, second son of James, late Lord Bishop of Itaphoe, and eldest bro ther of Admiral Sir James Hawkins Whitshed, Bart., G.C.B.

" Sir—l beg to acquaint you, for the information of the company at Lloyd's that the Arrow cruizer, on the night of the 24th inst., about twelve miles S. S. W. of the Bolt Head, fell in with the wreck of the Dutch galliot the De Vrow Alida (as appears by papers found on board), A. A. Boorgman, Master, of the Hoogurand, in Holland, about 70 tons burthen. Her appearance on going on board indicated that she had been run on board of by some vessel, but from the circumstance of not finding bedding or clothing on board, I am of opinion that the crew were either taken out, or saved themselves. By papers found it appears she cleared out from Cardiff on the 23d of April last for Amsterdam, with 70 tons of iron shipped by Cratham and Co. , of that p lace. Her masts, spars, part of her sails standing, and running rigging, &c., have been brought in by the Arrow and secured.—l am, Sir, your most obedient servant, " CHARLES BASDEN, " Inspecting Commander. " J. Collier, Esq., M. 8., Agent to Lloyd's." The agent to Lloyd's at Tbisted communicates the follow ing, which was received yesterday, dated October 22: " Stranded yesterday in the district of this place, the Trace Geble, Captain Erich Neilson, of Aalborg, from Amsterdam, and bound to Aahrunce and Aalburg, loaded with millstones, tobacco, gin, &c. The crew and ship's stores being saved, and hope also we should save the greater part of the cargo, but the vessel will most likely be a wreck." The undermentioned intelligence yesterday came to hand at Lloyd's, addressed to them by their agents at the Havannah, relative to the Mensagero, from Liverpool to the Havannah : " Having examined various parcels of goods landed in a da maged condition from the Spanish brig Mensagero, from Li verpool, and having attended at the public sale of the same, Ite gate the customary certificates, We attended also the ,meeting of the arbitrators who awarded to the owners of the steam-boat Almandarus, for salvage, 30 per cent. on the in voice value." The same agents also write as follows :—" On the 2bth ult., the English ship Percy, from Honduras for London, haring struck on S alt Key, put into the port of Ma tanzas, where the vessel was condemned, as -not seaworthy. Both vessel and cargo were sold by public auction on the 2d instant. The Percy, twin); on board her original cargo of between 80,000 and 90,000 feet of mahogany, arrived here on the Bth inst." From Thistcd (in Jutland), under date of the 24th of Octo ber, the agent to Lloyd's gives the following :—" A Nor way brig, laden with timber and without crew, was brought in on this mart, near Lunenberg yesterday by some fishermen. I hope the cargo will be saved, but the vessel is wrecked, the masts broken, and the ships' stores away. No ships' papers have been found of which could be seen the name of the vessel or the Captain, but she is burnt ' Norsk Eindon, 71 commerce last (Norway property.)' " The following letter received from the agent to Lloyd's at Rhyl, dated October 30, is relative to the Henry and Jane, from Ipswich to Liverpool, which was driven on shore near Rhyl (the fact we gave in yesterday's paper), and gives some interesting particulars :—" With reference to my letter of last night I beg further to inform you, that after post time the wind moderated, and having had the running rigging, sails, &c., got down, which greatly lightened her aloft, the Henry and Jane righted with this morning's tide, and proves to be not very seriously damaged in the hull so far as is ascertained, and should moderate weather continue, I have hopes of get ting her into safety in the Foryd, until she can be caulked sufficiently to be towed to Liverpool. The cargo, malt and a few beans, is mostly washed out, her deck being partially blown up ; the rest damaged. I shall, of course, take proper means to secure all I can, but 1% hieb, I fear, cannot be of much value. Three of the crew of the Henry and Jane fell from the rigging, and perished before a boat could be got to their assistance, which was, however, happily in time to save the lives of the master and two others." In consequence of the co►itir.ued indisposition of the Duke of Manchester, his Grace has been advised to try the aid of a warmer climate, and has left his :cat, liimbolt.on Castle, accompanied by Dr. Verity, for Italy, where the Noble Duke will remain for the winter. A correspondent informs us of the following cir cumstance :—On Monday last a poor woman of Chudleigh gave birth to a still-born child, and was attended by a nurse of the same place, who suggested to the mother to bury the child in the garden, and hinted that it, the child, would be worth a guinea—which suggestions the mother spurned with disgust. A shell was procured, and the child was, to all appearance, buried in the usual way. On the Wednesday following the nurse was called away to attend on another person, when the mother, on turning over some dirty clothes., to her great horror, discovered her child wrapped in the same clothes she had seen it wear in the shell. She immediately caused the shell to be dug up, which was found full of bran. The nurse, among other improbable stories, asserts that it must have fallen out of the shell.—Western Times. A young man died lately at Cambray, in France, a victim to the fraudulent means to which he had had recourse to avoid the conscription. In the course of last year, seeing the time of drawing recruits approach, the deceased be thought himself of bringing on a malady which might serve the temporary purpose of disabling him for the military ser vice, and yet be cured afterwards. He accordingly applied a powerful caustic to his thigh, which soon produced a deep wound that wasted the limb and rendered him lame. He also tock medicine internally, which disordered his diges tive functions, and altogether made him an object of pity at the time of drawinr , the lot. Fortino, however, favoured him, for he obtained ' the number 81. Now was the time for repairing his constitution ; but it had been already too much tried. All that art could do proved unavailing-, the restoratives failed, and a languor, accompanied by, occasional nervous irritation of the most frightful kind, conducted him slowly, but with the most painful sufferings, to a prelim- ture end. LAW-LORD OR HORSE -LORD ? Exceptions were taken when a horse was consul ; there could be none against his being a lord. It is beyond comparison better that a horse should have a voice in that house than that a judge should. A h orse-lord, p resent or absent, would be as capable of doing dut y in the house., as another lord when sleighing in ; attendingtour. atA horse-lord, under the switch of the King's the opera or the gaming -table, or making the riding-maste r, would be as c apable of g ivin g a p rox y , as ano ther lord under the wand of the King's Chamb erlain. N e i in that house w ou ld not mal:e a horse the worse for but sitting and voting there makes a judge very much worse for judging. If a horse contracted partialities, he would not trot the worse for it : when a judge exposes himself to similar suspicions, he judges very much the worse, or is thought to do so, which comes exactly to the same thing. Custom, which sanctifies all absurdities, cus tom alone could reconcile men to the sight of a man hold ing at the same time a place in the court appealed from, and another in the court appealed to, judging under one name what be has been doing under another. The plea is, that be may be there to defend his decrees ; as if a man could not be heard as a defendant without voting as a judge,—flotham. An event interesting to physiologists occurri The wife of the dwarf, Don Santiago de los self a dwarf ), was delivered of a well-formed at their residence, No. 107, High Holborn, near street. The accoucheurs. were Mr. Boaden, of street, Chelsea, who once before attended Donna Santiao, on a similar occasion, and Mr. Davis, of Saville-row. Both\ gentlemen had for some time been very assiduous in their attetions to the little lady ; but the infant, though it came into the world alive, did not survive its birth above an hour. Its length was thirteen inches and a half ; its weight was one round four ounces and a half (avoirdupois) ; it was in every respect well formed ; and the likeness of its face to that of the father wag very striking. It was carried in a coffin to St. George's Church, Bloomsbury ; but, being there refused sepulture, it was taken home, preserved in spirits, and is now exhibited in Holborn, previously to being deposited in one of our public museums. Mr. Davis was very anxious to have it submitted to dissection, and to lecture upon it at the theatre of the London University ; this, however, was declined by the Lilliputian parents, who appeared to feel poignantly this second disappointment of their hopes of adding to the world's population. It will be recollected that the Ettber is the same Spanish dwarf who made com plaint before the Lord Mayor, some time ago, of having been robbed by one of his countrymen of his savings, which bad been deposited i n th e p ublic funds, and which, had it not been for the strenuous exertions of his Lordship and other humane persons who interested themselves for their miniature fellow-creature, had certainly been lost to him for MT. Don Santiago, who is only twenty-five inches high, is at present in his fiftieth year. He is a native of the Spanish settlement of Manilla ; in one of the forests of which, it seems, lie was exposed to death in his infancy, on account of his diminutive size. He was, however, miraculously saved by the Viceroy, who, happening to be hunting in that quarter, humanely ordered him to be taken care of and nursed with the same tendaness as his own children, with whom the little creature was brought up and educated, until he had attained the age of Wanho wod. h wa His in birth is dated from the period o f his exposure, hic 1786. His parents, who were afterwards discove:ed i , werefarmers ; and were, with their own children (son ant, daughters), of robust frame, and rather above the usual veight. Our hero's diminutive stature has been attributed to ;earful and terrific dreams, by which his mother was haunted during gestation. When he was twenty years of age, his humane protector died, and attachment to the land of his birth (to which he often says lie will return), prevented him from acco mpanying his foster-brothers and sisters to Old Spain . This wilfulness cost him dearly : neglected by his own parents and family, he suffered hardship and privations of the most afflicting nature. At length he fonnd his way to Madras, and was, about six years ago, brought to England by the captain of a trading vessel. During the voyage be was washed overboard by a heavy sea, but hen-coop and spars being thrown out, and other assistance afforded, his life was saved. On his arrival in northern latitudes be suf fered severely from cold, and even now, though inured to the climate, he cannot swallow cold water. Still, ho never goes near a fire, although he feels sensibly if his room be not not kept warm. Ho is stoutly built, and generally pos sesses cheerful spirits and good health. His complexion is of a slight copper colour, and the expression of his counte nance is pleasing and intelligent. His habits are mode rate, seldom drinking anything but warm water; but, on his birth-days, wedding anniversaries, and other festivals, he indulges in a few glasses of wine ; indeed, on such oc casions, he passes round the bottle, and does the other honours of the table with much dignity, hospitality, and eclat. He is fond of music and dancing, and is a great admirer of the ladies : but his ruling passion appears to be a fondness for gay and glittering. attire, jewellery, and silver plate—to all which luxuries he has been accustomed in the house, and at the table of the Viceroy of Manilla. His mind appears to be deeply impresse: l with the tenets of the Catholic Church, in which his foster-father took care to have him duly instructed. He reads his prayer-book and psalter morning and evening, very devoutly crossing himself, and performing his genuflections with all the other cere monies inculcated by the teachers of that faith. Once or twice a month he goes to the Spanish Ambassador's chapel, where, secluded from observation, he worships with all the sincerity and devotion of a good Catholic. Besides his na tive tongue, he speaks an Indian patois, converses freely is Portuguese, and in English indifferently well. He became acquainted with his little wife at Birmingham, of which town she is a native. Her name was Ann Hopkins, and her height thirty-eight inches, being thirteen inches taller than himself. She is thirty-one years of age, and is really a pretty little creature, 'possessing much sym metry and grace. Her father stands six feet one inch and a-half, without his sho ls ; her mother is of middle size ; and her brothers and sisters (of whom there are nine in all) are tall and robust. The little don and donna live together very affectionately, their attachment having been mutual, and at first sight : the oily difference of opinion is, that she being a Protestant, they do not worship together ; and that ever since the attempted robbery of her husband by his countryman, she hates all Spaniard's, and pouts and frets and scolds whenever she sees hip ,converse with one. They were married on the 6th of July; 1834,in the Catholic Chapel at Birmingham, and two days after at St. Martin's Church in the same town, by the Rev. Mr. Foye, the High Bailiff giving the bride away. At this marriage the crowds were so great, that the assistance of the police was necessary to secure the ingress and egress of the little couple into and out of the church ; and the whole affair made no little noise throughout the kingdom. Much uneasiness was caused to the bridegroom by the refusal of one clergyman to ratify this marriage in the Protestant Church, on the supposition that it was contrary to the canon law, and might be the means of perpetuating a race of dwarfs !! Mr. Foye, however, overcame these difficulties by consulting the lawyers ; and the size and appearance of the infant, lately born, sufficiently prove that however good a theologian the clergyman who refuses to officiate might be, he was at least, an indifferent physiologist ; for though Na ture, in her fantastic moods, may make one slip, she never perpetuates the same to another generation. EXTRAORDINARY INVESTIGA TION AT DONCASTER. Considerable interest has been excited amongst the sport ing characters attending the races at Doncaster in conse quence of the apprehension of Mr. John Durden, an iron monger, of Reading, in Berkshire, who, it will be recollected, was a short time ago taken before the Magistrates at Bow street, by Leadbitter, the officer, upon a warrant from Don caster, charged , wish having fraudulently obtained, u.) . (n two chEAs, the one for 5001., and the other for 3,500/., en advance of nearly 20,00/., from the banking-house of Messrs. Leatham, Tew, And Jackson, the eminent bank(r at Doncaster. The prisoner was conveyed thither in the custody of tl e above officer for examination, and on Friday last he was brought from the gaol for final examination before Sir Wm. Cooke, the Mayor John Barwick, clerk to Messrs. Leotham and Co., bankers, of Doncaster, stated that on the Dith of Septem ber last the prisoner called at the banking-house, and pre sented a check for 5.25/., drawn by James Bromley, a gentle man residing at Goole, upon the York City and County Banking Company, payable to the prisoner Durden, or bearer. Witness knew the signature to be genuine. He said he had been disposing of some property in the ne.gh hourbood to Mr -Bromley, and the check was given to him in payment.
